Muslim State, Jewish State... (March, 2015, England, Georgia)

[BentBow]

Muslim State, Jewish State.... What makes Christians different, that they do not need a State?
Is it that Christians are taught to be tolerant and respectful of others even if you don't agree.
That cannot be said for the Muslim State. With the Jewish State not far behind
What would a Christian State look like? The Vatican?

[Nafster]

Costa Rica, Ireland, England, Greece, Denmark, and Norway I know all have Christianity as their official religion.

Also, most groups that are Christian identify more with their ethnic and cultural roots (like Germans, Swedes, French, Spanish, etc.) than by their religion alone. As do Muslims.

Jews are both an ethnicity AND religion.

This is a weird thread.
